O. M. G.

Please help me to feel better.

I HATE Facebook! I haven't actively used Facebook for years,but have the Messenger App as I sometimes get the odd message...

Anyway,for some reason,I decided to open the Messenger App and clicked on a conversation from my ex. We haven't spoken for about two years. Then,somehow I managed to accidentally send a thumbs up! I then panicked and then somehow changed the conversation colour?!!! Which came up as 'blanche has changed the conversation colour' and I was then like 'ABORT! ABORT! ABORT!' and then....god knows how....I managed to create a group with him and my other ex!

Oh the shame. I immediately left the group,but now,as I've left it...i seemingly can't get back in to delete it? So they're know in this sad little group together? Wondering why on earth I've suddenly randomly created this group and then left it!

Bloody hell

Oh dear. Well at least they’ll have something to talk about?

Delbelleber · 08/07/2020 11:53

😂

Ginfordinner · 08/07/2020 11:53

Can't you just unfriend them? Isn't that what usually happens?

difficulttod · 08/07/2020 11:54

That is funny! I wonder if they’ll start a conversation Grin

OwlBeThere · 08/07/2020 11:54

Grin sorry it’s not funny, but it is a bit.
If it helps that’s not even in the top 5 Of stupid shit I’ve done! ❤️

Grin Grin Grin

I'm sorry OP but that is hysterical.

HOW did you manage to do all that by accident!?!?!

You've got to style this one out.

Ignore. And if either of them get in touch with you, I'd feign ignorance then get back to them with 'OMG I am so sorry, there is someone in my house who I am going to kill when I get hold of them. As you might have already worked out, it wasn't me who made your group - do feel free to leave!'

It's so weird that they MIGHT believe you...

KeepingPlain · 08/07/2020 11:54

Sorry op but that gave me a good laugh. Grin

If either of them says anything, just admit you clicked the wrong buttons, apologise, laugh about it and forget it. If they don't contact, pretend it never happened. Grin

bettybyebye · 08/07/2020 11:54

Sorry but that has really made me lol! 🤣🤣 I’m impressed you managed to do that in error!

Bloatedandconfused · 08/07/2020 11:54

That's hilarious Grin and something I would do.
Sorry I'm no help whatsoever but thanks for the laughs x

Sorry OP, you have my sympathy. This is actually hilarious though

JamesArthursEyelashes · 08/07/2020 11:55

🤣🤣🤣 Brilliant.

WorraLiberty · 08/07/2020 11:55

If you still speak to them then tell them your mistake.

If you don't, just block them.

Swimmingwiththebees · 08/07/2020 11:56

When I used to have Facebook I did something similar by accident. My phone was awfully slow and I accidentally clicked on an old chat with an ex who I hadn't spoken to for about a year (who had since got a new gf) and like you somehow sent him a thumbs up! I was mortified and deleted and blocked him immediately which I don't know whether was the right or wrong thing to do but at least I didn't have to confront the issue ever!

Mamette · 08/07/2020 11:56

😂

Was there Wine involved?

OceanPacific · 08/07/2020 11:57

If you have kids just blame them - say they were mucking about on your phone.

slipperywhensparticus · 08/07/2020 11:58

My mom accidentally created a Facebook group instead of deleting the group she then kicked me out of it then she kicked everyone out of it Grin she couldn't work out how to close it

blanche85 · 08/07/2020 11:59

No - no Wine involved - I really don't know how on earth it happened,it all happened so quickly.

I don't speak to any of them anymore. I think that deleting and blocking and forgetting it ever happened is the way to go.

Oh the shame

heartsonacake · 08/07/2020 11:59

The thumbs up is easy to send because it’s right there on the bottom right of the screen for quick replies so if your finger accidentally touches it, that’s it.

The rest... I don’t know how you managed accidentally 😂

AvoidingRealHumans · 08/07/2020 12:00

This did make me laugh. Sorry I have no advice

Jonsnowsghost · 08/07/2020 12:00

I did the same with the thumbs up recently 😅 ex who left me in a horrible way last year and I accidently send him a thumbs up like 8 months after we split 😅 I also panicked and deleted the convo rather than the message so he then sends me a '?' And I had to style it out...what an idiot haha

blanche85 · 08/07/2020 12:01

It wasn't even a casual thumbs up either - it was fucking huge! Took up most of the screen!

OP posts:
PilatesPeach · 08/07/2020 12:03

Sorry OP I really did lol at this and needed a laugh so thank you but probably not the reply you were hoping for.

dudsville · 08/07/2020 12:04

why not just sa "sorry I clicked on this by accident and in trying to fix it I made a group with you me and my other ex! Obviously I didn't mean to set up such a group chat. Enjoy the laugh I hope it's given you!"

Tish008 · 08/07/2020 12:06

That is hysterical 😂😂😂😂

And a casual thumbs up vs a? Intense thumbs up?, Grin

Inthebelljar · 08/07/2020 12:08

I accidentally followed one of my exes when having a snoop on his twitter. I nearly shot through the ceiling when I realised what I had done Grin
